Argentina is a land of contrasts, from the vast plains of the east to the Andes in the West where Aconcagua, the highest peak of the Western Hemisphere at 6,959 m, towers above the other mountains. The variety of landscape ranges from the high plateau of the Northwest –with its deserts, valleys, gorges, and brightly colored hills– to the lakes, forests, glaciers, steppe, mountains, and cliffs of Patagonia. From the wetlands, lagoons, waterfalls, and subtropical rainforest of the Northeast, to the expanse of flat Pampas in Buenos Aires Province and the rolling hills of Cordoba.

Argentina is the second-largest country in South America, fourth in the American continent, and eighth in the world. Its continental territory occupies most of the south part of the continent and limits to the north with Bolivia and Paraguay; to the Northeast with Brazil; to the west and south with Chile and the east with Uruguay and the Atlantic Ocean.

Buenos Aires, the capital of the country, is the excellent cosmopolitan gateway to South America. The City of Buenos Aires has multiple artistic and cultural expressions that amaze tourists on their tours.
